Churches & groups
This list is arranged geographically to make it easier to find your nearest group. To help you plan your visit to an area, we have indicated the days and times of regular public worship or publically accessible meeting. This has been done in relation to the month, ie 1st Sun 8pm 3rd Wed 8pm means that the group meets on the first Sunday of each month at 8pm and the third Wednesday of each month at 8pm. For venue details please contact the group.
If we haven't included a group or church you think should be here, please contact Steve [rest of world] or Karen [North America] with details [see Contacts page for email addresses]. This is a list of groups and churches within the ethos of 'alternative worship' [see Definitions section] rather than a wider list of all kinds of emerging church. If you are in the latter category but not the former please contact Emergent who are developing a similar directory list for emerging churches in general.
